- Double-weighted statement
- We have requested that this output is double-weighted, since it is an extended and complex piece of research, which over the course of 204 pages covers much of the field of contemporary philosophy of mathematics. Its ten chapters present new accounts of plural logic and mereology, and new a priori theories of the natural numbers, the real numbers, and the transfinite ordinals. Seven of its chapters have substantial appendices giving detailed proofs of the mathematical claims made.
